Ugh. That was a hairy one to track down. I have committed a fix. The cause of the above problem was that the JIT was trampling over some x86 registers that are supposed to be callee-saved in the cdecl calling convention. By the time I finally figured that out, though, I had fixed several other pretty major bugs in the jit. Thanks for the report.
